Motor Vehicle Accident

In Alberta, you are entitled to receive direct-billed chiropractic treatment for motor vehicle accident (MVA) injuries, regardless of fault, under the Diagnostic Treatment Protocols Regulation (DTPR) and Section B benefits. A physician’s referral is not required, and treatment is covered up to a certain limit by your auto insurance provider. It is recommended to see a primary healthcare practitioner, such as a chiropractor, within 10 days of the accident to ensure proper diagnosis, treatment, and compliance with provincial regulations.
